This research comes with the discovery of the problem that surrounds homeless women. Their bodies attract much more than looks, implying practices that regulate their own sexuality in the underworld in which they survive. Therefore, this study aims to understand how gender affects the experience of homeless women, with the purpose of discovering survival strategies and local knowledge relevant to informal education. To develop this study I have two methodological traits: The first of an ethnographic nature, considering that the research takes place from the perspective of local knowledge, and the second, through the triad consisting of narratives, memories and oral history of the homeless population which contributes, however, to the understanding and discovery of such knowledge and strategies that help homeless women deal with the regulatory and disciplinary practices that violate their bodies and immoralize sexuality, dissociating it from most vital areas of their lives. Thus, with this work, I seek to highlight the lives exposed through the narratives as a source for the development of knowledge and thus acquire knowledge from the experiences of the other. In this way, I hope that this work will help new constructions in the most diverse areas of research and especially in the field of Education, for acting and developing important works in non-school environments, based on such conceptions, several points or places discussed here. Empowering homeless women and formalizing their problems that are still so invisible and who knows, enabling gender equality.
